The Dog Personality

No matter how much they complain, scold, or feign indifference, the Dog cannot ignore a real call for help. At times, Dogs protect the interests of others more avidly than their own. If anyone will bail you out ten times out of ten, that person must be a Dog. Once in a while, when Dogs decide to take up a cause they think is right, they'll emerge victorious. Fortunately, they don't tend to champion bad causes because their ideals and morals are of the highest order. As the symbol of justice, Dogs are very serious about their self-imposed responsibilities. When the Dog speaks out and asks for support, you can trust that the cause is worthy. 2/14/1934 - 2/3/1935 * 2/2/1946 - 1/21/1947 * 2/18/1958 - 2/7/1959 * 2/6/1970 - 1/26/1971 * 1/25/1982 - 1/12/1983 * 2/10/1994 - 1/30/1995 * 1/29/2006 - 2/17/2007 * 2/16/2018 - 2/4/2019

The Snake Personality

Like the dragon, the Snake is a karmic sign. A Snake's life ends in triumph or tragedy as dictated by their past actions. And although Snakes will deny it, they are very superstitious behind their sophisticated front. Snakes exude sex appeal with little effort. The original femme fatale or the brooding stranger you can't look away from may very well be born in the year of the Snake. This sign's coolness is the kind you cannot fake—you either have it or you don't. They are confident and collected as they roam around, giving the impression of indolence and a love of leisure. But Snakes are far from slothful, their brains never at rest. 2/10/1929 - 1/29/1930 * 1/27/1941 - 2/14/1942 * 2/14/1953 - 2/2/1954 * 2/2/1965 - 1/20/1966 * 2/18/1977 - 2/6/1978 * 2/6/1989 - 1/26/1990 * 1/24/2001 - 2/11/2002 * 2/10/2013 - 1/30/2014

The Sheep Personality

At their best, Sheep are artistic, fashionable, and creative workers. At worst, they're easily overcome by emotions and can become depressed and withdrawn. Sheep can forgive easily and be understanding of others' faults. Fond of children and animals, the Sheep is close to nature and something of a homebody. Sheep are apt to mother or even smother the objects of their affection. The outer appearance of the Sheep belies an inner determination: when threatened, they can respond passionately and decisively, even though they detest fighting. When you have nowhere to go, you can be sure the Sheep will not turn you away. 2/17/1931 - 2/5/1932 * 2/5/1943 - 1/24/1944 * 1/24/1955 - 2/11/1956 * 2/9/1967 - 1/29/1968 * 1/28/1979 - 2/15/1980 * 2/15/1991 - 2/3/1992 * 2/1/2003 - 1/21/2004 * 2/19/2015 - 2/7/2016

The knowledge acquired from this book should help you to make and maintain good relationships: It may help you dismiss the occasional crankiness of your Dog boss or deal with the changeable and capricious mind of a Horse client, the domineering but expansive ways of a Dragon friend, or the serene but skeptical attitude of a Snake. You may be surprised to find that your local handyperson, capable of fixing everything, was indeed born in the year of the dexterous Monkey, and that your slow, sure, and conservative banker just happens to belong to the year of the reliable Ox. You may be more patient with the annoying associate who's always the first to complain and cry wolf when you discover they were born in the year of the Sheep; you may laugh to learn that the colleague who wears such garish outfits was born in the year of the flamboyant Rooster. It's up to you to use the knowledge you gain...
